Fix for the 'photo sharing' bug

[IDCE]

Hey, i was looking into this the other day and it turns out there could be a simple solution…
My friend is still using the beta version of aMSN 0.98, and doesn't get the error - instead it automatically turns into a file send request.
Upon further inspection, that version of aMSN is seen as an older version of messenger - showing up as one from before the photo-sharing was introduced. As a temporary fix, i think setting aMSN to show as an older build of live messenger would sort the issue…
Could that work, or would it get in the way of other features?

Ed: Cool, good to see it worked

Hi,
good catch, indeed it would work, however, I think it might get in the way of the video calls feature introduced in 0.98...
I'm not 100% sure though whether or not it will affect it, but we can try and see.. I had increased the compatibility version (from 7 to 10) during my development of the video call support because something wasn't working and i thought it would help.. turned out to be something else that I needed to do, but I still left that compatibility version set to 10 thinking it might also be needed..
I actually didn't think of photo sharing.. I'll reset it back to what it was before, then we'll do some tests, if it all works, then great, you just helped the community, congrats
I'll let you know how it goes!

EDIT: alright, tested and working! latest SVN version has the fix, video calls are still working and photo sharing doesn't happen anymore!
Thanks a lot for the suggestion! nice thinking
